Mario is very professional and personal level. He will communicate through the process and give you 110%. I highly recommend The Strom Law Firm for your legal needs.
This is a great firm with an incredibly smart group of lawyers who really care about their clients. I recently had a tricky business dispute and the attorneys at Strom Law were quick to identify the relevant issues and laws, and then advise me on the best course of action. They directed me to the appropriate attorneys in the state and jurisdiction where I was doing business. And, they explained it all in plain English while not glossing over the subtleties of the issue. I highly recommend Strom Law.

Ms. Benevento:
This is to thank you for the outstanding job and professionalism that you showed while taking care of my son Daniel s case.
As you mentioned in the numerous messages that you sent us, regardless of the circumstances, Daniel was guilty under South Carolina law and, therefore, it was an uphill battle to even get the charges downgraded. However, you understood that we felt that an injustice had been committed against Daniel, since he was fined on the way to taking his roommate to the hospital s Emergency Room. You asked for the necessary documentation to present a case and showed up in court ready to help us. You were successful beyond our expectations by getting the court to agree to drop the charges based on the circumstances of the case.
If we ever have the need for legal counsel we will not hesitate to come to you. We will certainly make our friends know of your professional excellence.
Best wishes to you and yours,
Thanks Olivia, It was a pleasure working with you. You were well prepared and presented our case in a very professional manner. I could not have ask for a better outcome. Working with everyone at the Strom Law Firm has always been a pleasure and I will be happy to recommend your Law Firm to anyone.
Mr John Alphin was extremely professional, proficient, & persistent. He delivered results in a timely manner.
Thank you for your excellent service. Everyone was very professional and our experience was excellent!
John Alphin resolved an issue for my family and did it in lightning speed. Very professional.
Absolutely a wonderful experience working with this professional, reasonably-priced legal team. They took the time to really hear my needs and outline what they could do before pricing was ever discussed, then worked around my schedule to ensure that I was well represented. Can't recommend them highly enough!
During the time I worked with Olivia, she was able to answer all my questions in a timely and professional manner. She never made me feel inadequate. Olivia has such a welcoming and comfortable presence. I HIGHLY recommend her to get the job done!!
I am writing this review for Ally Benevento at Strom Law Firm, even though I rarely leave any reviews online. Last year, I had very unfortunate series of events which involved two different counties. The allegations were false, so I needed someone I could trust who can defend and represent me. Ally Benevento was and is a beacon of hope to my life as my options appeared to be very limited and the likelihood of satisfactory resolutions seemed nigh on impossible. I was afraid because I thought I was going to lose everything, but Ally continued to be a moral supporter to me in the times of need. Not only was she able to defend me from unjust false accusations, her calm and empathetic demeanor offered me hope throughout the process. Ally has excellent knowledge in law, and she is an expert and very smart. In addition, she has a quality that most lawyers do not have, which is honesty. The results have been nothing but short of miracles because the charges have been dismissed from one county completely, and charges are getting resolved from the other county as well.
To be quite fair, the legal cost at Strom Law Firm is not cheap, but you want someone who can defend you thoroughly and someone who cares for you. I just want to say thank you to Ally, Stephanie, and the team for believing in me and for giving me the best outcomes possible. I will recommend Strom Law Firm and Ally Benevento to anyone, 100%.
The Strom Law Firm has highly skilled and professional employees. Working with them on an acquaintance case, I saw a level of compassion that is rare to see in their line of work. Stephanie and Bakari are full of tenacity and perseverance! They worked on this case and followed it through to ensure a positive outcome. They make a great team! I highly recommend Strom Law Firm.
In the Summer of 2018, I was involved in a fearful legal matter and unsure of what the future may hold. I then had the pleasure of meeting with Erica Preston and Ally Benevento at Strom Law Firm! Communication and knowing where I stand is incredibly important to me and my family, which they both understood and kept in constant contact with me throughout my case while giving me the clarity and understanding which would otherwise have been way over my head. From the peace of mind that I was given, to the confidence that Strom Law Firm would fight for me every step of the way, I had the opportunity to be represented by a firm that cared about me and the outcome of my trial. The unknown of a legal matter can be one of the scariest moments, but with the assistance they gave me I have the utmost confidence in them in any legal matter that may arise in the future.
I communicated with them..but I did not get any conclusion..as I entered I left...no what so ever opoinin about my situation...it was wasting of time and effort..
Strom Law is handling a case for my wife and son. They have made the process incredibly easy. They always answer my questions and return calls.
Great experience with Bakari Sellers and the entire staff at Strom Law. They re a well-informed group of attorneys and their responsiveness ensured that any and all questions were addressed immediately. I ll definitely use them in the future.
This firm published a memo that grossly misinformed the public of the circumstances of their clients arrest, after a dually appointed LAW enforcement officer attempted to detain their client. The client refused to comply with lawful direction given by the officer.
This firm's characterization of the incident is misleading and incorrect.
The Strom law firm helped me with my SSI case and won my case. Mario and Bryan are great guys who keep you informed and handle all the paperwork. Great place I recommend them!
Needed a life saver. Had gotten myself into a bad situation and the possibility of going to prison. Through the diligence and hard work done by attorney Alley B. i was able to walk out of that courtroom a free man. No tricks just hard down attorney work. She was an A1 professional and knew every inch of the Law pertaining to my case. For that i am forever grateful.
Brian and Mario have been a huge help in my legal process. They have always made sure to help me with any task or questions.They have been super understanding, and always there when I needed to talk and ask question. Overall amazing service at all times.
Strom Law Firm LLC GOES ABOVE & BEYOND to serve their clients. My husband had something on his criminal record that was never supposed to be there. This was about 20 years ago and it always bothered him. We've tried over the years to get ANY SC attorney to call us back and let us know what steps to take or to help us get it expunged. We never received a single call back. And these calls were to prominent law firms recommended to us. We were baffled by this, but every year we would try again. I am glad we waited. The person who took our call, McKenzie Redmond could not be any sweeter. She walked us through what items we needed for when the attorney was going to call back in the next hour. (Seriously?? We couldn't pay someone to call us back. Is she really going to?) Sure enough, attorney Stephanie Jones called earlier than expected and had a brief conversation with my husband and I about our options. We felt so comfortable from the very first call. We retained them right there. Next to contact us was Kristi Kole, paralegal. We submitted everything to her and paid the retainer immediately. The transaction itself was hassle free, drama free, quick, sensitive to our needs, Kristi's follow up emails with updates (unprompted) kept us abreast along the way. In the end the expungement was completed and to celebrate Stephanie phoned us. I promised to write this review because if you don't call Strom Law Firm for assistance, you have chosen the wrong firm. Here you will receive kind and generous attention. We could not recommend them more highly. They are a 15 on a scale of 1 to 10. Thank you
Very professional and courteous staff, always willing to help and they will do what it takes to get things done!
I can tell you from first hand experience that if you want the BEST LEGAL DEFENSE TEAM in South Carolina, you need to choose Strom Law Firm. Stephanie, Bakari, and Ali worked extremely hard on my case. They achieved the goal set out before them even when we didn't think it was possible. The level of service,
care, and compassion they have for their clients cannot be measured. I will always be grateful for their hard work and dedication to insure a positive outcome in my case. A Big kudos to Stephanie!
This was my first time needing to solicit services from a lawyer. John s ability to describe the process and help me navigate a very stringent ABL issue was a true testament to the professionalism of the firm. I highly recommend Strom Law Firm for any of your legal needs. Thanks guys for all your hard work and exceptional customer service.

John and Erica were fantastic in helping us with acquiring our liquor license... alway stayed in touch and answered all questions and situations promptly and professionally... I recommend them to all business owners
Strom Law Firm was really great and professional. I had a great experience with Mario as my attorney and his paralegal,Brian.
These two are amazing,they worked very hard on my husband's workman's comp case and we were very pleased with the services and results .Brian was so prompt at returning phone calls and getting things ready for the case. I strongly recommend this firm for any of your legal matters. If I had to use you guys again, I would be happy to do so.
I spent 40 min on the phone being probed by an inexperienced receptionist/ paralegal airing out my laundry so to speak just to be told the number to the bar association. In fact I was given ch on another name for it but it meant the same. When I asked her was that the bar's she smoked screened it just to get me to hang up. But their web page is beautiful impeccable. Just the middle man between the general public & lawyer is unacceptable.
The Strom Law Firm provided expert legal guidance, in a friendly, compassionate fashion. Ally Benevento was my attorney, and wow, what a fantastic person to work with! She was sharp as a tac, and handled my case perfectly. I highly reccomend using the Strom Law Firm for your legal needs, they WILL NOT let you down.

At no point in time was I unsatisfied with my representation. Even with the circumstances, I was comfortable In trusting Alexandra Benevento. I would recommend to anyone seeking counsel for any reason!

Olivia Hassler was excellent to work with. Very impressed with her professionalism. She worked diligently on our case and was extremely knowledgeable! It was such a stressful situation, but Olivia truly went the extra mile to help. Highly recommend her!

"Very Professional and caring. Highly skilled, and Great customer service."
The service rendered to me by the Strom Law Firm can be summed as "top-shelf"!
My wife and I retained Bakari Sellers to represent our son in a case in Richland County. We found Mr. Sellers, his assistant Stephanie, and the rest of the staff at Strom, extremely courteous and professional. We really appreciated Mr. Sellers straightforward and honest approach. We believe this is a very competent law firm, and are satisfied with the legal outcome they achieved. We would highly recommend them!
Absolute pleasure to work with! They kept me well informed throughout the entire process! So glad I chose Strom!
I contacted Strom law Firm about my husband's social security case. The attorneys at Strom Law Firm walked us through the case. Their guidance took the mystery out of the social security process and reduced our stress level during the long wait for a hearing. I would recommend Strom Law Firm if you need a good disability attorney
I had the pleasure of hiring Olivia Hassler to work on a case for me. The pandemic certainly put a halt to some things, but Olivia definitely didn t allow it to stop her or slow her down. She was very responsive and was able to answer every question I had pertaining to the process I had to follow. If anyone is in a need of a great lawyer, I highly recommend her!!!
Strom Law had been the pinnacle of professional law-related services for years now. The entire team will go above and beyond to take care of you, every step of the way, until the case is complete. I can t recommend them enough!
We had a great experience with Storm Law. Our intake coordinator, Elisha Nick, was particularly helpful. She was quick to respond and answered all our questions right away.
I receny worked with Strom Law Firm to settle a dispute with a major U.S. based financial institution. The attorneys at Strom Law were able to successfully settle the matter quickly and accomplish a favorable outcome. Their advice and knowledge along the way put me at ease while helping me to fully understand all of my options along the way. I would definitely reccomend Strom Law to anyone looking for a strong attorney who will put your best interests first.
The attorneys and supporting staff at the Strom Law Firm, LLC are compassionate, knowledgeable, and incredibly dedicated to the clients they serve. The belief of the firm is that attorney/client trust is extremely important, and each client is treated with the dignity and respect they deserve.
Storm Law firm is truly the best in South Carolina. Dealing with any type of legal matter can be stressful and intimidating. Olivia was responsive, professional and worked diligently. Any questions I had she was quick to answer. I highly Recommend Storm Law firm and Olivia.
Alexandra Benevento is exactly the attorney you need and want in your corner. She is honest, but uses that honesty to connect with you, judges and solicitor. Her professionalism is perfectly balanced with her approachability and candor. I cannot think of any firm that I would call instead of Strom, knowing how the firm fosters her innate ability. Clearly, the firm has a culture that works to enhance its attorneys abilities in the interests of its clients.
Ally is an asset in the toughest situation and Strom is the better for fostering and harnessing her natural talent.
I have been a client with The Strom Law Firm for thirty years and have been incredibly blessed to
have assurance that they will do everything possible to provide excellent service to my needs.
Ally Benevento is exceptional and represents the firm in a professional manner.
John Alphin was great. We basically worked together for 22 months. Bakari Sellers was also on the team and together those 2 guys were fabulous. Won the case and I m still a client of Strom law firm. Thank you and awesome law firm.
I greatly value the effort the folks at the Strom Law Firm took in order to be certain I was completely aware of anything that had been asked of me. They took the actions to go far above everything that I envisioned when I realized I would need a lawyer. All of my questions were resolved and everything was simply spelled out to me in a way that I could completely understand.
My experience with Mario and his staff was outstanding.
When everyone said to give up my case with SSDI and after being poorly
represented and losing. I had to file my own appeals and represent myself.
I litterly called every attorney in the book. Then I called Mario cold - I expected one more no! Well, this gentleman took my case and won. He knows the law and cares alot. I am proud to call him my friend.
If you need a professional to help you, call these guys.
Getting the opportunity to work with Olivia Hassler was an absolute pleasure from start to finish. The level of compassion, tenacity, perseverance, dedication and professionalism that she brings to the table is unmatched. It is very evident that she cares for her clients and she will go above and beyond to make sure that each individual feels taken care of and well prepared for what's to come. I appreciate how transparent she was about the expectations from both parties involved up front and how truly knowledgeable she is. I will always be grateful for what Olivia has done for me and the positive impact she has made on my life! I highly recommend her services at Strom Law Firm! She's amazing!
Initially called for some legal counsel representation. I was greeted professionally on the phone but was immediately told that this firm would not take on my case. When I asked why, the personnel replied due to the amount of time that had lapsed. I knew right away that she did not hear nor understand what I was explaining to her. So, once again, I attempted to explain. Then I was told someone who specialized in the area I needed assistance maybe able to help and would call me back. The next day I did receive a voicemail from the Strom Law firm and promptly returned their call only to be advised that the attorney would not take my case. Never once talking to me, listening to me, looking through all my files. Isn t this what a free consultation is for? That would be the time for him/her to do that then make that decision. I m sure this was purely based on the amount of money he would have been making. But honestly, I am glad I didn t waste my time making appointment and carrying all my files with me, spending the effort of discussing my issue with an attorney who couldn t even take the time to listen from the beginning. Thank you for saving me in the beginning from making a huge mistake in choosing this firm.
Olivia Hassler talked through with me about my situation thoroughly and I could tell she really cared. Compassionate, understanding, and doesn t forget you re not only a client but also a human being. She's the type of attorney who actually takes the time to listen and offer advice. She has a passion for what she does and it was greatly appreciated. Thanks for everything!
I had an excellent experience with Strom Law Firm, and more specifically, Matt Robins. He was extremely responsive and knowledgeable. Matt was also very thorough and well prepared. I felt as though he provided me the highest quality of representation and I would recommend him and Strom Law Firm without hesitation.
We retained Atty Jessica Fickling to help us after a terrible car accident. She and her paralegal Mallory were wonderful! Professional, skilled, savvy - we couldn t have asked for a better legal team. Many thanks!!
Strom Law - Olivia made the process really easy. I appreciate her attention to all my questions and/or returning my calls. I was pleased with the service given and would recommend her to anyone.
They were awesome attorneys!!!!They kept me updated with my case and won.I would highly recommend this law firm.
Courteous, professional, compassionate and knowledgeable, the attorneys and staff at Strom Law Firm were extremely helpful in resolving my legal matter. Whether you have a small case or a large one, you can rest assured you will be treated with respect and care by the folks at this firm.
Very professional firm. I have used them for various legal needs. Always a positive experience!
Im very pleased with Strom Law Firm services and i would definitely recommend to anyone.
Strom Law Firm was and still is phenomenal!!!
Fighting a disability case is a war within itself and even more so if doing it alone. I am 1000% certain that without Mario and Brian on my team my case would ve been a loss. The high level of expertise, respect, understanding and professional service received is hard to match!
Especially, having found Mario after coming from a law firm that gave the impression that they could care less when it was time to fight! They will go the extra mile so you don t have to!
I would recommend Mario and The Strom Law Firm team to anyone fighting a battle that they handle. The choice made, will not be one you regret!

Perhaps the thing that impressed me most about Attorney Olivia Hassler was her calm and empathetic demeanor when preparing a Power of Attorney and my mothers Last Will and Testament. Ms. Hassler sat down with my 84 year old mother and patiently gathered information and listened to my mother's wishes. Our family is eternally grateful for her service and we would recommend Attorney Olivia Hassler without reservation.
I went in today 04/25/2018 to talk about my case for disability,,,,i believe this will be a good firm to get my disability started
Great law firm...awesome costumer service! Absolute pleasure to work with!
Would recommend this law firm to anyone.
The best Tax Law Firm in Town!!! Thank you for the great work Mr. John Alphine!!!
There is a total lack of follow through at this law firm. They say they will take care of things but they don''t actually do anything unless you repeatedly call them. Even then, they miss basic details of what they were told. Six months after the initial contact, I ended the relationship as they had done nothing that they said they would. They did refund my money in a timely manner but I recommend you find a more trustworthy firm if you are looking for results.
Ms. Ali helped my husband tremendously with his case, I would highly recommend this firm to anyone needing very professional, courteous & caring counsel. I cannot thank her enough for everything that she has done to help us.
My experiences have always been super professional but not in a cold or callous way. Alexandra has been so thorough and helpful as well as all of her support staff. Having a positive experience with great customer service from an attorney and their team makes a stressful situation so much better and easier as a client. I can t say enough great things about Strom Law, and I would recommend them to any friends of family that might be in need of legal services.
My experience with Strom Law Firm has been stellar! I have worked with many attorneys through the years on both corporate and personal matters. I can state with confidence that the attorney at Strom that I have worked with has done an outstanding job for me and I would recommend and refer him to anyone! He is responsive, thorough in explaining my options in layman's terms and very knowledgeable concerning the issues at hand. I believe Strom is looking out for my best interests in these matters and I have been more than satisfied with my experience with them.
When I needed help with a simple traffic ticket, Ally and her team did an amazing job! They were responsive and quick. However, Strom Law Firm as a whole is the best in the business. Their intake process is seamless, you have attorneys that fight for you every step of the way no matter how big or small the case might be, and their support staff communicates and works with you the entire time.
The Strom Law Firm and specifically Ally Benevento were very responsive and great to work with on our case. Our case was resolved with ease and put to rest any anxiety I may have had. I highly recommend the Strom Law Firm!
I was in need of legal guidance and Olivia Hassler provided me with unparalleled service. In the world we live in, it is extremely difficult to trust certain individuals in the field of law but Olivia is and was a huge exception to that!
